I can't comment in your case but what about compiling the Ada code, build an archive with the code and interface it with the C++ code. This also avoid introducing bugs during the conversion which most probably can't be 100% automatic for reasons already exposed by others here. I always prefer interfacing (C++ to Ada, or Ada to C++) than rewriting/converting code that is tested and known to work well.
